i think there were a number of challenges with chris christie. namely, i think the book talks a lot about his weight and the book talks a lot about a vetting record. but i think namely, chris christie is not somebody who would be comfortable in the role of being a number two. and when you're going to be president, you have to have confidence that the person who is going to be your number two is going to be focused on your agenda and someone like chris christie with a strong personality and fixed ideas about what he wants to do don't necessarily fit very role well in the role of being a vice president. >> he's the alpha. >> he's used to being number one. going back to when governor romney was considered a vice presidential candidate in 2008 as a potential running mate for john mccain. i made the same argument. i said mitt romney is used to being number one. he's not someone who will fit very well inside the box of the vice presidential candidate. >> maria, the same book "double down" also sels the obama campaign explored dumping joe biden, i hate
